Liandry's Torment, Seraphs Embrace and Barrier will be real good on Xerath too. With all his passive armor the 2 shield actives will give him good defenses, and the Liandry+Rylai combo will give him flat mpen which will be awesome on him, lots of HP and add to his poke damage significantly.

I can see him being much better in S3.

You've gotta learn Irelia so every game can be Jax vs. Irelia and then you can feel like a tournament champion!

Low range squishy AD carry.
People are bad enough with champs like cait with 650 auto range. Or ashe with 600. Imagine someone bad playing an AD that is even squishier with less range. Now add onto that a really bad build (say, zeal -> LW cause they can't farm and "enemy team is stacking armor!"). Now on top of it all give said champ a movement ability (tumble) that bad players use to move INTO the enemy team instead of using it to kite, as well as an ability to save any enemy with low health.

What are free weeks? I play ranked.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

I wonder if there is a correlation between free week champions and greater pick percentage in ranked. I would suspect that's the case if for no other reason than people are thinking about those champions more. It would be interesting to see some stats on the matter.

You forgot the part where Vayne's laning, while not as bad as it's sometimes made out to be, is very very below average. I'm having a hard time thinking of an AD carry that is worse than her pre-6.

Is she much worse than Varus? I would think with at least one escape mechanism (two with Banish), she's at least a little safer, right? Honestly, I wouldn't know though because I have little experience around Varus and no high-level experience.

At least you see people getting LW cause "enemy team is stacking armor!" I have to keep nagging my AD carry allies to get LW when necessary instead of stuff like MBR. T.T

varus does quite well in the laning phase. It's just the rest of the game he starts to have some trouble.

Pretty sure Varus's laning phase is really good. Laning against him post-6 is a nightmare.

Ryze is a real faceroll champ at lower elo where players can't take advantage his short range and think Ahri is really good. He's also really, really OP in TT and Dominion.

So, I know people on here like to theorycraft, so here's something for you:

My friend who makes up the fifth man in a group was one of the ones who played lol the longest, but got bored of it so we don't usually have five for a team which sucks =(. Anyway, he has some attachment to old school styles of building champs so I was thinking if I could get a build for him that builds that way adapted to the new meta, he might find the game more fun.

We're not trying to be competitive at all, so something that's cool and works in solo queue would be excellent.

He liked Mordekaiser, but he never liked the ap mid morde build. He used to build old old school tank morde, with sunfire and fon, and that's the style he likes. Tank morde I'm not sure about how to do, but bruiser morde I'm thinking has more promise maybe. Maybe...triforce into randuins + tank items? His q scales on bonus ad, so maybe a bloodthrister into full tank build? Sunfire wits?

21 in defence seems obvious, then 9 in offense is probably the way to go. Standard armor yellows, mr blues, and depending on what I decide on ap or ad, some sort of penetration marks. Quints are preference I guess.

To be honest, bruiser itemization is probably what I have the worst grasp of, so any help will be appreciated. I'll take some suggestions, and see how they work out in practice. After that I'll write a guide or something for my friend.

EDIT: To clarify, I'm looking for a bruiser morde (ap or ad, leaning towards ad atm) build I can test out. Not one that'll make bruiser morde viable competitively, but something strong in solo queue.

LW is worse damage than a 2nd PD on a lot of champs. And is always less than an IE (if you went BT first or TF>BT). The only plausible reason for pros buying it so often (besides silliness) is that it gives you a faster powerspike (cheaper).

IE>PD>LW is surprisingly non-ideal on a lot of AD Carries.
